Nov 302012

Silverado 3500 8-cyl

  • 82,880 miles
While traveling at about 25 mph a light application of the brake was followed by the brake pedal going completely to the floor. An investigation revealed a ruptured brake line in the area of the brake control valve. After being towed to the dealer I was advised that all the brake lines were severely corroded and needed to be replaced. I bought the truck new and was very concerned to find that my brake lines had failed with only 82,800 miles on the truck and only 6 years old. Brake lines should last the life of the vehicle. This was a serious life threatening failure.

Silverado 3500

  • 88,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the ABS light illuminated on the dashboard. The contact noticed that the brakes and rotors were wearing excessively due to a defective hub senor that controlled the braking system. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer to have the hub sensor and brake bearing replaced three times. None of the repairs remedied the issue with the braking system. The contact called the manufacturer regarding NHTSA campaign I.D. 07E106000 (wheels:cap/cover/hub). The manufacturer advised that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 88,000.
